Here I have 4 photos that show how a teenager became a man, unafortunately I only can say that his last name is Wieprecht, the photos comes from his brother album the man with the EK I, and that he started his service in 8./Inf.Rgt. 125, his brother in Inf.Rgt. 127 and his brother in law the third man in the group phot served in Inf.Rgt. 124.
We can see him first as a recruit, promoted to Gefreiter, then to Unteroffizier and finally to Oberfeldwebel.
He wears collar patches and Schirmmutze cords for officer, but his brother always wore NCO atributes instead he reached the same grade that him.
